HEAT DEFLECTOR.

Application filed June 25, 192:2. Serial No. 647,531.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that 1, JAMES B. Monnow, a citizen of the United States, residing at Oakland, in the county of Alameda and State of California, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Heat Deflectors, of which the following is a specification.

My invention is an improved deflector, particularly applicable to portable oil burning heaters.

The object of my invention is to provide a deflector which will prevent the upward travel of the hot air and compel it to move downwards and to the side, thus heating the cooler air around the stove in the lower part of the room, which is desirable.

Another object of my invention is to provide a deflector which may be readily attached to any standard heater.

A still furtherobject is to provide a deflector which may be tilted to either side, and thus deflect a greater amount of heat to the side.

()ther objects of my invention are to provide a deflector which is simple in construction, inexpensive to manufacture and efficient in operation.

In the drawing in which my invention is illustrated- Figure 1 is aside view of my deflector attached to a heater.

Figure 2 is a transverse sectional view of my deflector.

Figure 3 is an enlarged fragmentary sectional view of the holding clamp.

Referring more particularly to the drawing, the numeral 1 indicates a deflector hood which is preferably conical in shape. A conical baffle plate 2 is formed near the apex of the hood 1 and with its apex pointing downwards. A. rod 3 extends between and is secured to the apexes of the hood 1 and baflle plate 2 and is secured in a clamp 4.

A bracket rod 5 which is formed of a resilient material, extends through the clamp a and thus supports the hood 1 and baffle plate 2 above the stove 6. Feet 7 and 8 are formed on the lower ends of the rod 5 and are arcuate in shape, so that they said feet in place, and enables the deflector V to be removed if desired.

A. handle 9 is threaded into the clamp 4 against the rod 5 and serves to hold the deflector in any position desired either tilted or horizontal.

The lower surface of the hood 1 and conical plate 2 are enameled which forms a highly reflective surface, and thus increases the efficiency of my deflector.

Having described my invention, I claim: 1. A deflector comprising a hood, means for mounting said hood above the stove adjustable means connecting said hood to said first-mentioned means and a conical bafile plate having its apex pointing in the op posite direction from the apex of the hood, said baffle plate being attached to said hood.

2. A deflector comprising a rod, feet on said rod adapted to grip the sides of a stove, a clamp on said rod, a conical hood secured at its apex to said clamp, and a baffle cone fori'ned in the apex of said hood, said handle cone having its apex pointing in the opposite direction from the apex of the hood.

3. A. deflector comprising a rod, feet on said rod adapted to grip the sides of a stove, a clamp on said rod, a conical hood secured at its apex to said clamp, a bailie cone formed in the apex of said hood, said baflie cone having its apex pointing in the opposite direction from the apex of the hood, and a handle threaded into said clamp against said rod.

In testimony whereof I my signa ture.

JAMES B. MORROVV.
